You are invited to join us in a week of prayer, right from your own home, for the cause of Christian Unity among the various denominations in our own hometowns.

The theme for The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity in the year 2026 is a verse taken from St. Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians 4:4 “There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling.”

Register for Waitlist

Registration is full, but we encourage you to register for the waitlist, as cancellations do sometimes occur.

Take a day to refresh and restore your soul, mind, and body. Sr. Linda Zahner will lead a guided meditation drawing upon the wisdom of St. Hildegard of Bingen to start the day, and then you can choose from one of three options— reflexology, contemplative healing touch, or spiritual direction—to add to your time. You will also have ample opportunity to visit the chapel, walk the grounds, or relax at Sophia Center—whatever nourishes your health and well-being.

*Cost also includes lunch. Registration is limited to 3.

Please register by January 15.

After receiving your registration, you will receive a confirmation email from us which will include your invoice. We never want our retreat costs to be prohibitive to anyone who wants to attend our programs, so we are pleased to offer scholarships. Fill out our simple scholarship request form now!

Sobre el libro: El juego de la vida y cómo jugarlo, de Florence Scovel Shinn, es uno de los grandes clásicos de la auto-ayuda y superación personal. A pesar de ser un libro sencillo, sus palabras llenas de sabiduría demuestran un pleno conocimiento de las leyes de la prosperidad y del perdón, del poder de la palabra, de la perfecta expresión personal y la intuición. La vida es un juego, no una batalla. Si conocemos sus sencillas reglas, podremos jugar con sabiduría y alcanzar la victoria.Y la victoria significa una vida plena, próspera y feliz.
